The relay team from Stonehill posted top honors in a time of 43:11. The Chieftains finished the competition with three of the top four squads, which included a third and fourth-place mark. Brandeis placed second overall in 43:57, while the contingent from Assumption rounded out the top five finishes.

Running for Stonehill's winning foursome was senior Christina Seremetis (Hingham, MA/Hingham), junior Mario Fraioli (Auburn, MA/Auburn) and sophomores Sean McKeon (Millbury, MA/Millbury) and Meghann Shanahan (Haverhill, MA/Haverhill).
